`
`
`PATENT OWNER’S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR ADMISSION
`PRO HAC VICE OF LISA J. PIROZZOLO
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Case No. IPR2017-02031
`Patent Owner’s Motion For Admission Pro Hac Vice Of Lisa J. Pirozzolo
`
`
`I. Statement of Precise Relief Requested
`
`Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c), Patent Owner Genentech, Inc.
`
`(“Genentech”) requests that the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (the “Board”) admit
`
`Lisa J. Pirozzolo pro hac vice in this proceeding, IPR2017-02031. Petitioner
`
`Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc. has indicated that it does not oppose
`
`this motion.
`
`II. Statement of Facts Showing Good Cause for the Board to Recognize
`Counsel Pro Hac Vice During the Proceeding
`In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 42.10(c), the Board may recognize counsel
`
`pro hac vice during a proceeding upon a showing of good cause, subject to the
`
`condition that lead counsel be a registered practitioner and to any other conditions
`
`as the Board may impose. Section 42.10(c) indicates that “where lead counsel is a
`
`registered practitioner, a motion to appear pro hac vice by counsel who is not a
`
`registered practitioner may be granted upon a showing that counsel is an
`
`experienced litigating attorney and has an established familiarity with the subject
`
`matter at issue in the proceeding.” The facts here establish good cause for the
`
`Board to recognize Lisa J. Pirozzolo pro hac vice in this proceeding.
`
`1. Lead counsel, David L. Cavanaugh, is a registered practitioner. Backup
`
`counsel, Adam Brausa and Rebecca Whitfield are also registered
`
`practitioners.

`of Massachusetts, and am admitted to practice before the United
`States Courts of Appeals for the First and Federal Circuits, and

`

`
`patent cases. Pirozzolo Decl. ¶ 10-11 (Ex. 2003).
